 FROM THE PRINCIPAL’S DESK:

v    Ways to Help Your Child Love the Mass: Start with the basics- Make sure everyone has had enough to eat and has visited the bathroom before Mass so they’re comfortable.  Even adolescents will squirm when hungry.

v      Reminder:  First Communion will be on Sunday, April 20th.

v      Cookie dough orders will be ready for pick up on April 23rd after 2:00 p.m. in the old gym.

 ACES CARNIVAL INFORMATION:

The carnival is quickly approaching.  Mark your calendars for April 25th.  If you would like to donate any money towards the carnival please contact Susan Kramer at 367-7018 or sukramer@bbwi.net.  I am also looking for workers for all of the games and inflatables.  They are 1-hour shifts from 5-6, 6-7 and 7-8pm.  The inflatables are open until 9pm.  We are trying to get some of the older kids to fill up the list first and then I will be sending out next week what is still needed.   If you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to let me know. 

 

 ACES SCRIP:

Congratulations to Trudy Scott for winning April 14th's drawing for the Carnival wristband!  All orders placed on April 21st will also be entered into a drawing for a wristband.  We had over 100 responses from our Scrip survey.  Thank you and expect your 10 free Carnival tickets next Monday or Tuesday.  Don't forget to buy Dennis Uniform gift certificates for $20 at a 5% discount through Scrip.  With the 15% discount for ordering on May 2nd, this would be a great way to pay for your new skirt without having to pay for shipping and handling!  Don't forget the bonuses which include:  Lands' End, Bath & Body Works, and Shutterfly.  Don't forget family graduations, birthdays, Mother's Day!  Thank you for your support!
